Wyden, a Swiss company that builds digital asset trading infrastructure for banks, brokers, and asset managers, has integrated VALR into its global liquidity network.
Wyden develops technology that allows financial institutions to connect to multiple cryptocurrency exchanges, brokers, and liquidity providers through a single trading platform. The system is designed to help institutions manage the full lifecycle of digital asset trading, including order execution, settlement, portfolio management, and reporting, while also connecting to custody and banking services.
Through the new integration, institutional clients using Wyden’s platform can now access liquidity from VALR’s markets and trade digital assets listed on the exchange. The partnership expands Wyden’s connectivity to African cryptocurrency markets and provides global investors with easier access to trading pairs linked to the South African rand.
VALR has become one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in Africa, offering a wide range of trading services that include spot markets, futures trading, over-the-counter (OTC) services, and institutional liquidity solutions. The exchange is widely used by traders and institutions looking to access crypto markets denominated in the South African rand.
Connecting VALR to its infrastructure, Wyden enables institutions to trade more than 100 digital assets available on the exchange without needing to build separate integrations. The platform also supports tools such as smart order routing and automated execution, which help traders execute large orders efficiently across multiple liquidity venues.
The integration highlights the growing interest among global institutions in accessing emerging crypto markets. As regulatory frameworks and trading infrastructure continue to develop across Africa, exchanges such as VALR are becoming important gateways for international investors seeking exposure to the region’s digital asset ecosystem.
The addition of VALR strengthens Wyden’s network of connected exchanges and liquidity providers. The company’s platform is designed to simplify institutional crypto trading by offering a single system through which clients can access markets, manage risk, and execute digital asset transactions across multiple venues.
